DeAndre Hopkins: 'I'm the best receiver in the NFL'

Houston Texans receiver DeAndre Hopkins has surpassed 800 yards through the air in all five of his NFL seasons. He accumulated 13 receiving touchdowns last year, which led the league. He makes even the most difficult catches look easy.

But he still feels his name is not mentioned enough among the best players at his position.

"I definitely feel like I'm underrated," Hopkins said Friday, via ESPN's Sarah Barshop. "I think I'm the best receiver in the NFL. Having guys ranked in front of me that I know that I'm better than, that's always going to drive me."

Hopkins' 91.9 receiving yards per game ranked second to only Antonio Brown in 2017. Perhaps playing with a healthy Deshaun Watson at quarterback this season could lead to an even bigger explosion.
